Wishes Of The Past Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Heartfelt emotions taking me into the night, filled
with wishes of the past that were never fulfilled.

Living their emptiness through a lonely heart that
no longer beats with life, only intense sorrow.

Shattering, life-exploding feelings, tearing at my
insides, wanting to escape.

There is no way to do so for life cannot escape the
death of loss nor follow it into the atmosphere of
heaven.

Settling into quicksand of past desires and passion,
letting go of my heart as it's buried with my soul in
the moonlight, never again seeing tomorrow.
